So here's the thought.
A climbing module
Figure out something fancy and sci-fi to call it... nanite gripper-ators or whatever, but its a module for scaling vertical surfaces.
Would probably make this a hi slot module, making snipers/forgers choose between it or damage mods. Would work like selecting it from equipment wheel, and entering "climbing" mode. You move at about half your run speed, but stick to any surface you are next to. It also drains stamina while moving, when you run out of stamina you have to sit still until it comes back. Higher meta modules reduce your move speed less.
This would give an alternative to dropships for reaching high spots, but also add more 3 dimension fighting. When a scout could scale a small building and drop down the other side behind the enemy. Much better than using the current death traps called ladders. |

Snipers usually aren't an issue up there, counter snipe and done, the problem is usually when a heavy suit gets up there and really only on that one map with the table top in the middle. That particular scenario is what's causing the majority of grief about access issues, and there are a few easy work a rounds to that (towers on the opposite side of the map are out of forge range, but not your sniper rifle's). But I think this would not only alleviate some of the griping, but add to the interesting 3d warfare.
Plus it would just be cool. |

Blessing and a curse, you can get up there, but so can shot gunners,AR's, and whoever else you don't like. |

im tired of climbing stuff with derpships to kill snipers..
other than that im just going to troll snipers.
today i killed one with a breach forge gun!..
i walked up behind this sniper
charged the forge..waited till he turned around.. and SHOT HIM IN TEH FACE AT POINT BLANK RANGE!!!!lol!!!!!!...
The one downside to ladders, aside from the pain of adding them to every single building, would be the vulnerability to snipers. easiest kills out there are when someone is climbing a ladder. Elevators could be interesting, but the ding when they get to the top would give you away time. |
